The story

Cuts Clothing launched in 2016 as a direct-to-consumer apparel brand focused on premium men's shirts designed to transition between professional and casual settings. The company has remained a privately held, venture-backed DTC brand with approximately 80 employees. Its embedded finance story is primarily limited to AP/spend management tooling (BILL) rather than consumer-facing financial products.
